Idaho Stampede News Release


BOISE, Idaho, November 10, 2010 - The Idaho Stampede is offering a "Stampede Basketball Heroes at the Hardwood" ticket special. Military personnel and their families will receive half-price tickets by showing a valid military ID at the Qwest Arena box office, courtesy of the Idaho Stampede Community Foundation.

The offer is valid only for Wrangler section seats at the Saturday, November 27 game and is based on availability.

"The Stampede organization is grateful to all members of the military, their families and veterans," Stampede President and General Manager Steve Brandes said. "We hope that by partnering with the City of Boise, we can honor those true heroes who put their lives on the line to protect our country."

That night's game is just one event based on military families. Before the game, from 5-7 p.m., Boise Mayor David H. Bieter will light up the city's Christmas tree in the Grove Plaza for the inaugural Downtown Holiday Tree Lighting Celebration, presented by Zions Bank.

"For families of the 116th Cavalry Brigade who are stationed in Iraq, this holiday season may be difficult," Mayor Bieter said. "We hope that this opportunity and others throughout the year will help to show our appreciation to military families and to veterans who have sacrificed for our country."

Also coming up during the holiday season as part of the "Our Troops, Our Families" program is "PC Saturday." On Saturday, December 4 at City Hall West, military families will be able to bring their PC or laptop computers to get help diagnosing and fixing issues that do not require new hardware.
